Lauren B.

Description

With 5 years of experience in the fast-paced world of Silicon Valley, I am reliably able to handle multiple projects, under pressure, with grace. I’m new to the world of freelancing, but experienced with all things research, organization, and coordination. I’m here to help you be successful.

This past spring, I graduated with my M.S. degree from Stanford University in Environmental Science. I also have a B.A. in Human Biology from Stanford, and focused primarily on environmental policy and communication. With a strong background in science, plus a significant focus on science communication, I can confidently work on highly technical projects while still communicating effectively with people from a variety of backgrounds.

I am very comfortable navigating social media and have experience developing a brand voice and social media content for a biotechnology startup in the Bay Area. I also have an extensive research background including archival research on changing environmental policy and the California Coastal Conservancy, design-driven research on healthy food access in San Mateo County, CA, and field research assessing land management and soil carbon sequestration.

Two of my biggest strengths are organization and timeliness. I genuinely enjoy organizational tasks and putting systems in place that help projects more smoothly go from start to finish. I am quick and easy to communicate with and welcome all feedback. I’m happy to take initiative and tackle projects head on or take a more collaborative approach. I look forward to working with you.
